Summary of the contracting process

Liverpool John Moores University sought to undertake external refurbishments for a section of its John Foster Building in Liverpool. The procurement process was classified under the "works" category, focusing on tasks such as replacing roof tiles and rainwater goods, repairing windows, and cleaning brickwork. This procurement was conducted through an open competitive method below the threshold, with the tender period concluding on 1st April 2026. The total contract was awarded to Skyline Property Solutions Ltd, a Liverpool-based SME, on 9th April 2026. This followed the evaluation criteria focusing on price, quality, and social value, with a project completion window from 18th May 2026 to 30th September 2026, offering potential for an extension if needed.

This tender process provided a significant opportunity for SMEs in the construction and trade sectors, specifically those capable of delivering specialised roof and facade refurbishment services. Companies seeking growth prospects in public authority projects, specifically within the UKD72 region of Liverpool, would find this tender particularly suitable to enhance their portfolio. Opportunities for additional work exist if future refurbishments are required, as stipulated in the awarded contract terms, highlighting potential for sustained business growth with Liverpool John Moores University.
